My wife and I decided to look for a home in Idaho to retire. After 40 years in a big city on the east coast, we craved a slower-paced life in semi-rural Idaho within 30-40 minutes of Boise. John worked with us to find the perfect home on a hilltop with views that go on for miles. John made the process sooooo easy and negotiated a very fair deal. John provided outstanding advice at all hours of the day! He hooked us up with the best mortgage broker too! (John seems to know everybody!) We could not have been happier with the overall shopping and buying experience. And we could not be happier now having moved into our new home. My wife and I strongly recommend John to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Idaho!

Working with Randy was stress-free and easy! My partner and I are first time homebuyers, and Randy made sure that all of our questions were answered promptly. He was ready to go with us to look at houses last minute or with advance notice. He has excellent communication skills and is kind, patient, funny, professional, and overall a great person to work with. I would 100% recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home in the Treasure Valley.

Shaun was my realtor when selling my house and was an awesome person to work with. He is fast to respond to messages or phone calls. He is now my realtor on selling the home we live in now.

Sales people are typically pushy, don't take no for an answer well, especially those on pure commission. Randy is not that salesman, he puts you in the driver seat. More importantly if you have a question he can't answer he will find a way to get it for you. He also makes himself available whenever you need him. From my family to yours Randy, thanks for all your hard work to get us into our new to us home.

Heath VanPatten just might be one of the most upstanding people I’ve ever had the pleasure of interacting with. I met and started working with Heath in 2022. I quickly realized the value of his character, not only in what he says, but most importantly, in what he delivers through action. Heath’s principles hold true to doing what is right morally, and ethically to support any individual he interacts with. His willingness to succumb or forfeit for the sake of honesty and integrity are his most championed moments. He will only accept earning an opportunity, earning a friend, earning a business endeavor or earning a win for his team! I have seen Heath remain charitable, kind and forthright under the most compromising conditions. Time and time again, he always chooses the “high road” in his personal life, his business dealings, and at the final moments of a championship playoff game!
I strive daily, myself, to live up to HIS personal standards! He embodies what we deem every great leader, teacher, parent, friend and partner should be; to stay focused and have the ability to see the whole picture, make respectable decisions, stand for sound judgement, hold true to his convictions, and to fight everyday to be the best human possible! In any capacity, I’d welcome the opportunity to be in Heath’s company and friendship, to work on a project, close a business deal, navigate uncharted territory, or coach a team with. He holds all of my respect and admiration.

Highly recommend working with Zach. He is kind, genuine, caring and honest.

Mike held my hand the whole way through the process and strongly recommended processes like getting an inspection and not taking my chances with buying without representation protection.

Mike was able to help me out and find a realtor and a far away state for my 90 year old mother. He interviewed multiple people for me and found a fantastic fit for our family. I am very grateful for Mike and his ability to help and his willingness to do so as well. Thank you Mike. I really appreciate your help. Sincerely, Joel Chandler.

From our first meeting with Heath, we knew he was one of a kind. Not only is Heath very professional, but he demonstrates strong ethical character traits. He's reliable, thoughtful, and caring... going out of his way to assist and bring value wherever he can. Heath's experience and strong communication skills are evident in the questions he asks and the insights he shares throughout the process. He's clearly respected and appreciated by peers and colleagues as observed in all the interactions he had with others in the trade. All of these characteristics led us to have a very positive and productive experience working with him. Heath has been such a pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase (or sell) a home.

When buying a home, it can be fun and yet a bit stressful at the same time. Jessica was wonderful! She knew how to answer all my questions and if she didn’t know it, she found it out for me. She’s very personable and friendly and I now I’m proud to call her a friend, if you’re in the market for buying a home, don’t hesitate to use her. She is amazing and will be there with you every step of the way.

I relocated out of my home state and had no idea how to find the best realtor for my needs. I contacted Mike and he did the research, knew the right questions to ask and connected me to the absolute best realtor in town. Not only did my Realtor become my first close friend in my new town,but Mike did this service free of charge. I would recommend Mike to anyone buying a new home, relocating, whatever your real estate needs might be. He’s the best.

Mike was amazing. From our first meeting he was very clear on what he would do to market our home. Then he did everything he said he would do. His videos were top notch and he shared the results of his online marketing at least once a week so we were aware of the results of his efforts. Not only did he market locally, he also targeted specific areas out of state to broaden our exposure.
During the home inspection, a significant issue was uncovered. He went above and beyond to find a solution that saved the deal (and saved us over $20,000).
Based upon our experience, we can highly recommend Mike for your real estate needs!

Jessica listed our home in June of 2022, the market did a steady dive afterwards. Lower listing prices, inflation high mortgage interest rates hit us hard. We had numerous deals falls through due to funding. Jessica persevered despite all the road blocks. Jessica was able to sell our home In February 2023.
Jessica is very dedicated, friendly, ethical, and highly knowledgeable in the real estate field. We highly recommend her if you are buying or selling a home in the Treasure Valley.

We had several challenges in selling our house, one being that we live a long distance away. John bent over backwards to help us through each issue, and he went by the home frequently to check on status of yard, tenants, etc. It was also during a downturn in the market, so it took a while to sell, but John persevered through it all. John is very professional, he helped us immensely and I highly recommend him!
"

We appreciate him and his work ethic. One word to describe him is Excellence.

Shaun is AWESOME. He was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable while we were searching for our first home. He was flexible and patient with our schedules when we were trying to see houses and made the process really simple and easy. Definitely recommend him if you’re trying to buy/ sell a home!

John was phenomenal during the whole process of looking for a loan, searching for houses and then finally helping me put in an offer. He was very patient as it took me awhile to finally decide on the house that I wanted. He was there to help me with everything, even negotiated a few extra's on the house which was nice. I would highly recommend John when purchasing your next home as he is very knowledgeable and with his connections will find all the right people to help you.

Heath took over for another property manager I had and did such a great job. I had two rental listings and a home sale going on at the same time. My worry was since I was out of state I would not be able to handle it but Heath took care of everything and made the process much easier.

John is one of the most generous people I've ever met. Not only is he willing to go above and beyond, but he's also willing to listen. He takes time to build the relationship and get to know you. That really goes a long way and is rare to find these days!!
I'm so grateful for getting the chance to work with John over the years and I can't wait to see what the future brings. I encourage everyone to work with John!!

Mr. Petras represented us in this real estate transaction. Everything from finding the right property for our investment, financing contacts, inspection needs & working with the seller's agents. A better deal came forward from the seller after our initial contract was signed. Mr. Petras worked our contract to take advantage of a larger property for a small increase in the purchase price. We would highly recommend utilizing him as your agent.

John persevered diligently through 4 months it took to sell house. This was during a fast changing market during mass inflation, rising interest rates and drop in housing prices. We had to adjust accordingly and John clearly communicated our options. He also went the extra step to facilitating maintenance needs on a empty sitting house.

John is a great connector! He is very professional and loves working with people. I highly recommend him.

Mike is a very motivated, down to earth person. He’s intelligent, friendly and no nonsense. He says what he means and does what he says and that’s somewhat rare in his profession. He was able to negotiate some off the price of our home which is a new-build! This is highly unusual but Mike looks at everything as a challenge that he’s always up to. He’s the kind of realtor you want on your side when buying/selling your home. We HIGHLY recommend Mike and in fact we have, to our family members, who we’re trying to get out to Idaho to be closer. Now, that has to be the best testament to a job well done! We also plan on keeping in touch with Mike once we get all settled into our new home as we view him as part of our family now.

This was my first time buying a home. The confidence and support I received was beyond reassuring. Every detail was meticulously reviewed and explained. With something as big as this, Mike (my father) was the very agent EVERY person should have. His understanding of best practices, scheduling, and digging deep into the integrity of our property was paramount. The only regret one would have is NOT selecting Mike Walters as their agent.

Shaun was helpful every step of the way. Selling a home can be stressful, but he assisted us in what little things we could do to upgrade our home to help get the most out of the sale. He is an honest realtor who is going to go the extra mile to help make the transaction as smooth as possible.

Shaun was extremely helpful and knowledgeable in the process of finding our first home! He took the time to research and visit a ton of homes and was always helpful in our decision making process. I would recommend Shaun to anyone looking to buy or sell a house! We couldn’t be more excited about our new home and wouldn’t have found if without the help of our amazing realtor!

Moving from California to Idaho is a big deal and even bigger when you also have 7 kids, a dog, and 2 cats! Shaun was incredible at taking us on detailed video tours of houses, answered every single question, and made us feel like we were there through the whole process. He went the extra extra mile to ensure we were happy with our choice and got the best deal on our new house. We feel so excited on our new adventure and 100% recommend Shaun for your next home sale or purchase!
